teams and national squads
just like in my little community of soccer there is a difference in level of play between professional clubs and national clubs. the united states we have the MLS (major league soccer) and the general level of soccer pales in comparison to Spain's budis liga. so scouting for national teams mostly take place out the country now. there is something Ive found that supports this 100% I play this game called Fifa 10 which is a soccer game that features many of the worlds soccer teams and is very accurate in the portray of players and teams. i created a character in the game and played for one of the MLS soccer clubs i was top scorer for 2 seasons something like over 70 in a season goals which is crazy! And yet the USA national team has not noticed me. i created another player who played for, in my opinion the best team in the world, Barcelona. the second guy was on the national squad within half a season and did not score more than 4 goals. Goes to show how bias the world of soccer is to the weaker professional leagues and the best in the world leagues. Its so hard to even make it to our MLS league i could only imagine how tough it is for those kids who live where everyone lives and plays soccer.
